Research Narrative
During the last 3 years, the major thrust of my research and creative activities have focused in three areas, which are listed below along with related NIH and extramural funding covering the research since the last advancement (2018):
- Improving the outcomes of solid organ transplantation in people with HIV and translational studies bridging the previously distinct worlds of HIV and transplantation. Related funding during last 3 years: A) NIH U01Al118594-05 – Impact of CCR5 Blockade in HIV+ Kidney Transplant Recipients (Stock PI)(active until 07/31/2021); B) NIH U01 Hope in Action Prospective Multi-Center Trial (Stock Site PI)(active until 07/31/3021); C) NIHU01 Al152153-01 – Maximizing the success of HIV+ to HIV+ Kidney Transplantation in South Africa (Stock Co-Investigator)(active until 03/31/2025); D) NIH U01 A1115714-03 Sofusbuvir and Ledipasvir in HIV/HCV Coinfected Pre and Post Liver Transplant (Stock PI)(funding ended 12/31/19); E) American Foundation for AIDS Research (amfAR) 109119-57-RGRL – Impact of Everolimus on HIV Persistence Post Kidney or Liver Transplant (Stock PI)(funding ended 01/31/2018).
- Beta Cell Replacement strategies for the treatment of diabetes mellitus with pancreas transplantation, islet transplantation, or stem cell-derived beta cell clusters. We were funded ($11-million dollar grant) from CIRM to develop the forearm as a site for islet cell transplantation. This novel approach uses co-transplantation of islets with parathyroid tissue to facilitate engraftment – and has the potential for the development of a safe and accessible site for stem cell-derived beta cells. Related funding during last 3 years: A) California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) – Islet and PARAthyroid Co-Transplantation for Treatment of Diabetes in Intra-Muscular Site (PARADIGM) (Stock PI) (active until 06/30/2023); B) NIH/NIDDK P30 DK063720 Diabetes Endocrinology Research Center (Stock Director of the Islet Production Core, German PI) (funding end 03/31/2020, renewal pending).
- Public Policy/Organ Allocation: During the last 3 years, I continue to have an active role in the development of national allocation policy. Based on previous experience as the Chair of both the national pancreas and kidney committees of UNOS, I have been funded as a senior investigator of the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR). The SRTR is contracted by the government (HRSA) to provide analysis based on the national data registry to guide policy development. Related funding during last 3 years: HSRA 75R60220C00011 (annual funding – contract to continue thru 2025).
In addition to the public policy development guided by the SRTR, I have served as the Chair of the Ethics Committee of The Transplantation Society, which guides international policies regarding the complex ethical issues involved in transplantation (see Professional Competence below).
Pancreatic Islet Transplantation
The translational research in the field of pancreatic islets revolves around clinical trials of the safety and efficacy of islet transplantation in patients with Type I diabetes. The clinical trials are funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). These clinical trials focus on novel immunosuppressive strategies that utilize co-stimulatory blockade to prevent the immune response against pancreatic islets with a regimen that is not toxic to kidneys or beta cells.
Related research involves improving the techniques required for isolating pancreatic islets from the pancreas, which is being conducted in a fully compliant GMP laboratory facility. The study of the alloimmune and autoimmune response following islet transplantation will be conducted to determine the efficacy of the immunosuppressive strategies. Further translational studies will include methods of expanding the source of beta cells, using direct proliferation, as well as manipulation of precursor cells localized in the adult pancreas. We are currently funded (PI) for a translational grant from California Institute of Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) to bring embryonic stem cell-derived beta cells to a clinical trial.
Solid Organ Transplantation in People with HIV
With the advent of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART), HIV has been a chronic disease. People with HIV are no longer dying from progression of HIV to AIDS, but rather as a result of end stage live disease (viral hepatitis co-infection) and kidney disease (HIV nephropathy). Our laboratory heads up the large NIH-sponsored national multicenter trial which is studying the safety and efficacy of solid organ transplantation in people with HIV. Translational research is exploring the impact of HIV on organ function and the impact of immunosuppression on the immune response against HIV and associated copathogens.
